Purchasing a home is a big step and a big decision. The average person spends around 1/3 of their income on their home. The home that you choose has a big impact on your life and can have a big impact on your finances as well. It always surprises me when Buyers attempt to go at it alone because of the possibility of mistakes. A good Buyer's Agent is invaluable to a Buyer and can be the difference between a wonderful transaction and a nightmare.
Maximize Your Time
While driving neighborhoods is an excellent idea to help you decide which locations you prefer, it's not a very efficient way to find your new home. Gas is expensive and your time is valuable. Your Buyer's Agent will listen to your needs, make fantastic suggestions based on your likes & dislikes, and provide you with a list of homes that ALL match your wants and needs. Your Buyers Agent has helped MANY new homebuyers through MANY purchases, and will help you better organize your search and decision making process, saving you valuable time.
Representation
Listing Agents enter into legally binding agreements that require them to ALWAYS act in the best interest of the seller. They are the seller's coach and will make sure that their clients best interests are looked after. Luckily, your Buyers Agent is there to make sure YOUR best interests are accounted for. With your expert Buyers Agent in your corner, you can rest assured that you're on even ground with the home seller.
Negotiating Power
The MLS maintains a record of, not only all homes listed by Realtors in a given market, but also the sales price of those homes. Your Buyer's Agent will run a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to determine a prospective homes Fair Market Value. In simpler terms, your Realtor will look at similar homes in the same neighborhood that have sold recently. This way, you will know whether or not the seller has their home priced fairly. If the home is priced over Fair Market Value, your Buyers Agent can present your asking price offer with plenty of firepower and a greater chance that the offer will be accepted.
Experience
The average person buys 3-5 homes in their lifetime. A good Buyers Agent will assist in 3-5 home purchases every month. What might seem complicated and intimidating to you is fairly common and familiar to your Realtor. Your Buyers Agent will know what to expect and will know when to alert you if anything out of the ordinary occurs.
Industry Contacts
It takes a lot of people to close a real estate transaction: Buyers Agent, Listing Agent, Loan Officer, Inspector, Appraiser, Insurance Agent, General Contractors, and sometimes more! A good agent will come with a strong closing team that has performed in the past and will continue to perform. A transaction is only as strong as its weakest link. With your strong Buyers Agent and their closing team, you can rest assured that you will have plenty of support.
Piece of Mind
If you are like most people, your home is the largest purchase you will ever make. This is a big decision and you don't want to go at it alone. When you use a trusted Buyer's Agent, you know that your best interests are accounted for and that you can feel confident in your purchase.
